Morton Wealth is seeking a full-time Compliance Associate to join our team. We are a registered investment advisor formed in 1981 that manages roughly $3.5 billion in assets across 1,200+ families. We manage wealth personally with the goal of empowering better investors and encouraging families to enjoy their lives. Our investment approach is distinctly not "Wall Street" — we are willing to look beyond traditional investments when we believe alternatives can more closely match our philosophy of risk management, true diversification, and cash flow.
At Morton, our Compliance team operates as a genuine partner to the rest of the organization. We believe compliance done well doesn't slow people down, it gives them the confidence to move forward. If you're an experienced compliance professional who wants to take on meaningful responsibility in a collaborative, growth-oriented environment, we'd love to meet you.
Our Compliance Associate takes the lead on a broad range of compliance functions, working closely with our Chief Compliance Officer on everything from regulatory filings and operational due diligence to AI governance and firm-wide training. This is a role with real scope and real impact. One that offers the opportunity to shape how compliance is practiced at a firm that genuinely values it.

- Maintain and update the Firm's Compliance Manual in response to regulatory developments

- Familiarity with the Investment Advisers Act and SEC regulatory framework
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office, including Excel
- Excellent organizational and communication skills
- Strong intellectual curiosity and critical thinking skills
